Meaning: Aireanna is a modern respelling and elaboration of Arianna (or Ariana), the Italian form of the Greek Ariadne, from ari- ('most') and hagnos ('holy, pure'), so 'most holy.' The opening Aire- spelling reflects an English-language desire to build the sound 'air' into the name; the meaning is inherited from its Ariana parent.Low

History & Origin
Aireanna is a modern American respelling of Ariana or Arianna, which trace back through Italian to the Greek Ariadne, 'most holy.' It shows up in United States records from about 1991, growing alongside the broader popularity of Ariana and reaching a modest high around 2009. It never rose beyond a couple dozen girls a year, so it counts as a rare variant.
A girl given this spelling near its peak is a young adult today, part of the generation that turned Ariana into a favorite and spun off many spellings of it. Aireanna is unlikely to revive as a distinct form; parents drawn to the sound almost always choose the mainstream Ariana or Arianna instead.
